Supercharger Belt Tensioning tool

[Minidave]

Does anyone have one I can borrow? I'm supposed to help another KC MINIac replace his belt tomorrow, but I need to borrow the tool to do it, can anyone help?

Thanks!

Dave -

Three questions:
1) What is the service interval on SC belt replacements?
2) How long does it take (and degree of difficulty)?
3) Is the 15 percent pulley upgrade easy to do at the same time?
Thanks.

1) I think it's around 65K....

2) Depends entirely on your skill level and tool box. If you go on NAM you can find some pretty detailed "How-To"s written up.

3) See #2

However, I'd also refer you to this post here on KCME for some perspective and a possible helper.....

I have the belt tensioner tool back, but Walnuts still has the pulley tool.

Just leave it on the porch by the door if you come by during the day. Did you find all the bolts and such?

Eric, if you need to borrow them, shoot me a PM and I'll get you directions and a phone number.

Oh, and while I have the pulley tool, you'll need a puller to get it off the shaft; the tool I have clamps around the pulley so that you can remove it - you still need the puller.
